The Inbetweeners writer Iain Morris has poured scorn on reports that his television creation is set for a fourth series.

Writing on Twitter today, he was succinct in his response to rumours that the hapless quartet are to be filmed going off to college and starting their working lives, but with their numbers depleted by one:

Various media outlets had reported James Buckley, who plays self-professed lady-lover Jay, as saying there would be a fourth, but with one of the characters killed off.

To which Morris had this to say:

So that's that, then. No more punched fish. Or fashion shows gone horribly awry. Or trips to Thorpe Park. So we'll have to contend ourselves (FOR NOW!) with more replays of the bunch of four clunge-keteers.
